inside-Out, Outside-In

Perception changes with awareness. Perception doesn't remain the same when the awareness changes from shallow to deep, deeper and deepest level. Then the physical aspects get blurred and what comes into sharp focus is the `abstract'.Does perception make an organisation look different? Is perception the reflection of organisational awareness or is organisational awareness the reflection of perception? I was trying to find the answer to what my heart had whispered to me.It is not `either this or that'; it is perhaps both `this and that'.Perception is the reflection of organisational awareness and organisational awareness is the reflection of perception.
It works both ways. If someone perceives of himself with a physical perspective, his awareness remains at the level of a physical being; if someone perceives of himself with a spiritual perspective, the level of his awareness goes deeper and he may consider himself as a spiritual self. He may start considering himself as a spiritual being. So, a perception limits or creates awareness and one begins to search inwardly .I would call this `outside in'.
But it works in reverse too.The shallow level of awareness creates a low level of perception and deeper level of awareness creates a higher level of perception. This way , awareness creates perception and one develops a perspective. I would call this, `inside out'. I dare declare: he who explores the corporate soul is greater than he who manages 10 Fortune 500 companies. He alone will survive and thrive tomorrow.
